The real problem of equalization in this country is that Vancouver got no F-ing snow this winter, and it is still snowing here today.

@rodmickleburgh As Tom Nichols said a few days ago "I think the bigger problem is that there are probably millions of people in this country that don't know we've gone to war, or don't care, as long as the WiFi is on and there's something good on TV."

Botulinum toxin is 100% natural and one of the deadliest molecules known. Aspirin is synthetic and has saved millions of lives. “Natural vs synthetic” was never the right question. The real question is risk, dose, and evidence. But somewhere along the way we forgot.

Science is hard. You have to prove it, test it, and reproduce the results. Pseudoscience is easy. Make it up. Add fear. Watch it spread.

Imagine living in a country like Canada -- peaceful, free, gentle, polite??? -- and wanting to "separate?" WTF is up with that? Maybe it's a sign that life has been too easy; if you've travelled and you've seen how many others live, you'd kiss the ground and say Thank You.

@Dred_Tory So true. I have lived within miles of the US border almost all my life. But not until I got American relatives, did I realize how far apart we really are. And how unreconcilable.

It's always been my contention that what are usually assumed to be profound similarities between Canada and the US are in fact superficial, and that wide cultural disparities appear when key indicators are considered. This is one of many cases in point.
Pew Research Center@pewresearch

We asked people around the world to rate the morality and ethics of others in their country. The U.S. is the only place we surveyed where more adults describe the morality and ethics of others living in the country as bad than good. See our full morality report here: pewresearch.org/religion/2026/…

The problem isn't the availability of scientific research. It's the flood of people misinterpreting complex data with zero training and full confidence. Access to information is no longer the barrier. Understanding it is.

Spend 20 years studying Chemistry. Collect data. Publish papers. Earn a PhD. Write patent applications. Go online. Get told you're wrong - by an anonymous electric screwdriver salesman. That's the internet. Expertise vs confidence. Science isn't broken. Our respect for it is.

Beautiful sunset this evening. Haven’t posted in a couple days. A “follower” criticized me saying that I was part of the reason our education system is failing our kids. Basically saying that I post too many pics to be a good teacher. Way to go ruin a hobby, eh! LOL

In these uncertain times, it is important to remember who we are as Canadians, & what we cherish. For me, I hold dear the right to be an individual whilst belonging to a society that collectively strives to be just, fair, & inclusive. We are far from perfect, but we are good.🇨🇦
